5 L engine knocking
Just an FYI but when talking about left/right on a vehicle it is done with the person sitting in the driver seat looking forward just as one would when driving.

Took to dealer at 1200 miles.Dealer removed belts and checked crank end play. Tech told me knock gone with belt off? Said they checked 7 other 5.0 engines and heard knock in all? I heard it in two others. Ford engineer stopped any repairs and said it was NORMAL operation.
Very distinct knock and best heard just above idle,700 rpm, in gear. Or driving slowly/backing.

Are you by any chance in Canada or anywhere other than the U.S. ?

So you are in another country, LOL seriously though if the noise goes away with the belt off then it's an engine accessory making the noise. Could be normal.
Mine is quiet as can be.
EDIT: Probably a smog pump for California emissions and why I don't hear it, I'm not in Cali.
